Catlovers, many of the problems we face on a daily basis result from us being impacted by our emotions. Rather than us being the driver of our lives and using emotions as a navigation system, we hand the wheel over to the emotions and end up hanging on for dear life.

It takes practice to learn how to witness our emotions without letting them drive our lives. Therapist suggest clients learn how to sit with the emotions because they know that doing this does not come naturally. We need to be told to do this. We need the reminders. Therapist know that when a person learns how to sit with their emotions, many of the behavior symptoms will be resolved in a natural way.
Thanks for this!
